This was stated by the Deputy Head of the Main Directorate for Road Safety (GUOBDD) of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation Oleg Ponaryin on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (PMEF).
“We, as the State traffic inspectorate, are ready for such an introduction, the question is up to the legislators. As soon as the relevant infrastructure in the Russian Federation as a whole is ready, we will be happy to use it, ”he said (quote according to TASS).
Ponaryin noted that experiments with digital codes have already been carried out in Moscow, the Moscow region and Tatarstan.
On October 1, 2022, a service was launched in Russia upon presentation of a driver’s license in the State Services Auto mobile application. The head of the State Traffic Inspectorate of Russia, Mikhail Chernikov, noted that while the service will work in test mode.
To check, drivers need to generate a QR code and show it to inspectors. At the same time, according to the rules, drivers must still carry the original license and STS.
